ASM Rx-A

The OptoTech 4-axis generator ASM Rx-A is the ideal universal automatic grinding machine for ophthalmic mineral lenses. Spheres, aspheres, torical, A-torical up to free form surfaces can be produced in highest precision and accuracy. The machine offers high quality grinding due to 2 interpolating axes.

Highlights

  • For processing the backside-progressive ophthalmic lenses including edging (elliptic and chamfer), like progressive, spherical, toric, a-toric and prismatic surfaces, convex and concave, made of silicate glass as well as organic plastic
  • High prismatic surfaces possible due to unique kinematics
  • Up to 4 grinding tools in 2 tool spindles possible. For rough, medium, fine and finest grinding.
  • High speed single surface processing of any lens shape (depending on tool diameter)
  • Automatic loading unit for fully automatic grinding process
  • Short set-up times due to Microsoft Windows operating system with OptoTech user interface
  • Quick and precise tool change due to HSK Chuck technology for Combitool and singletool variation
  • Implementation of wear improvement. Machine automatically calibrates itself from glass to glass.
  • Adaptive toolwear
  • Automatic torque controll for reduced processing time

Options

  • Automatic or manual version with smallest footprint available
  • Barcode hand scanner
  • Remote diagnostic
  • LAN connection
